Visualizing nonclassical effects in phase space

Abstract: Nonclassicality filters provide a universal method to visualize the nonclassicality of arbitrary quantum states of light through negativities of a regularized Glauber-Sudarshan P function, also denoted as nonclassicality quasiprobability. Such filters are introduced and analyzed for optimizing the experimental certification of nonclassical effects. An analytic filter is constructed which preserves the full information on the quantum state. For balanced homodyne detection, the number of data points is analyzed … Show more

“…It was shown in Ref. [35] and later confirmed in experiment [23], that a larger value of q leads to a clearly improved statistical significance of the negativity of the regularized P function, P w , sampled from a fixed amount of data in balanced homodyne detection. In fact, the significance is maximal in the limit q → ∞.…”

“…where L (k) n (x) are the generalized Laguerre polynomials. Using a radial symmetric filter function [102], Ω w (β) ≡ Ω w (|β|) with x = |x|e iϕx for α and β, then P Ω,nm (α) may be rewritten as…”

“…which includes the width parameter 0 < w ≤ ∞. More general classes of filters can be additionally found in [43]. This regularization approach has been used, for example, to experimentally uncover the negative quasiprobability of a squeezed state [44,45,46], which would be impossible with the frequently applied Wigner function.…”
